Default A snowwoman
She is 8 1/2" tall, carved of basswood.
I hope the picture goes through.

Everyone here is such an inspiration to me. Keep up the good work.

Neat piece, MJV. The bird is cute. Is the Birdhouse a purse then?

Thanks everyone for the compliments.
Marci, the bird is a little over a 1/4". More sandpaper than carving knife to do it.
